He would have fit perfectly in blue and pee yellow however.

He played two years for the griz and is a graduate from the U of Montana.
I'd say that's good enough to be called a griz.

pro day is a waste of time and effort . It's just not relevant at this level.

Lack of effort? He helped lead us to the championship game. Turned the Griz season around. So he left on the portal. He had to do what was best for him. He'll always be a Griz, in spite of your cynical attitude Everett. Shocked by your response, man. You're usually pretty level headed.That's not very montana nice of you. Whatever happened to once a griz always a griz?
uhh, Roper never led us to a championship game or left via the portal. Which wouldbr be in existence for some 15 years.
As for Cliff, I agree with you completely FWIW.

Pro Day is especially important at this level.

So you believe only the 300 kids invited to the combine get a chance to show their strength and speed in measurable events?
When interviewing someone for a job, do you limit your interviews to the first 3 people that walk through the door and then cut off all the other candidates?

Tell Kobie Turner that.
Or to Pat O'connell. Who has been in the NFL from our pro day without going to the combine.
"For him and the others, it was a special opportunity to get to take a step toward fulfilling lifelong dreams.
O'Connell's pro day shuttle time of 4.28 seconds and L-drill mark of 6.97 seconds both would've ranked second among linebackers at the combine as well."

Sounds like a really good 40 time for someone like Bergen could be a big deal.

where is he now or has he been ? He's is irrelevant in the NFL. He was not drafted and he could made it to the Seahawks without a pro day.Or to Pat O'connell. Who has been in the NFL from our pro day without going to the combine.

The VERY few that have a chance to make the NFL can make it thru a good agent and film. They will get invited to try out just like Grossman if they are felt worthy. At one time Pro Day was valuable. The scouts get to have a paid vacation so I guess there is that.

you are a stubborn old grizzly. I would say these guys made pretty significant impacts to their teams and none were invited to combine. I would say the combine is more irrelevant than the pro day.

You could be honest and claim your obvious ignorance on this subject but I see you’re taking the low road as usual.

Old is claiming these guys would’ve made it anyway which is an unarguable stance. Dudes a complete moron or genius. I’ll let the eGriz collective decide that.

You should change your user name to mine then you could speak for me . eGriz collective ? Are they the same clowns that always post on here? Most should go join the circus instead.
Kinda seems like he quoted you almost word for word.

Yeah, man, I think you misread the post. He was talking about Roper, not Cliff.
